Ingredients
- 1 coconut both flesh and water
- 5 cups water
OR USE
- 4 cups coconut milk bottled
THE REST
- 7 dried butterfly pea flowers
- 1 cup water to steep the tea
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup or your preferred sweetener
- 1/2 tsp vanilla powder or 1/2 vanilla pod β optional
- 1 tsp dried edible lavender optional
Instructions
- Heat 1 cup of water and steep the butterfly pea flowers with the optional lavender. As it steeps, the water will turn a beautiful blue color β the longer it steeps, the deeper the color will become.
- If using a whole coconut, carefully make 2-3 holes to drain the coconut water. Then open the coconut shell and collect the coconut meat.
- If using a vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds from half of it (or all of the seeds if you prefer a strong vanilla flavor).
- Add the coconut meat to a blender or food processor and blend into crumbs. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. It may take a minute or two to achieve a creamy coconut milk consistency.
If using bottled milk, simply blend all the ingredients until smooth. - Strain the mixture through a nut milk bag or sieve. Enjoy it fresh! You can serve your blue milk over ice or add tapioca pearls to create homemade bubble milk tea.
